Also called Devil's Triangle.<br />It is a triangular shaped area in the North Atlantic Ocean, from Bermuda Island to Miami, USA and Puerto Rico. Hundreds of people and numerous boats, ships and planes have disappeared inside this triangle. Reasons given for these disappearances vary from scientific to sheer myth. Here are 10 Shocking facts about Bermuda Triangle :<br /><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-U5tqp-gWIdY/V_KuydicfhI/AAAAAAAAAsE/BaXCwaWe5SUoCsU_8o1ThT1T_sStOYKLwCLcB/s1600/bermuda-triangle-02.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="186" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-U5tqp-gWIdY/V_KuydicfhI/AAAAAAAAAsE/BaXCwaWe5SUoCsU_8o1ThT1T_sStOYKLwCLcB/s320/bermuda-triangle-02.jpg" width="320" /></a>#1- The Bermuda Triangle is not small. In fact, it is quite large and covers an area of 440,000 miles of sea. This is larger than the combined area of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh &amp; Maharashtra.<br />#2- The triangle is certainly not fixed and its effect can be experienced outside of the triangle too.<br />#3- The disappearances are ascribed to UFO's and alien activity, city of Atlantis lost under the triangle, and various other technical, natural and geographical reasons.<br />#4- Whenever any plane or ship disappears in the Triangle, its debris cannot be found. The reason behind this is that Gulf Stream runs near the triangle, which quickly gets rid of the debris.<br />#5- At least 1000 lives are lost within the last 100 years. On average, 4 aircraft and 20 yachts go missing every year.<br />#6- Inside the Bermuda Triangle, US Government has AUTEC (for Atlantic Undersea Test and Evaluation Center), which is located on the Andros Island of Bahamas. Here US Navy tests their submarines, sonar and other weapons. However many are of the view that it is more than just the testing center.<br />#7- &nbsp;People have experienced electronic fog in the triangle, which can be a Time Travel Tunnel too. Pilot Bruce Gernon claims he lost 28 minutes after flying through a time-warping cloud tunnel. The plane went missing from radars, only to re-emerge in Miami Beach. (Source: The Fog by Bruce Gernon.)<br />#8- &nbsp;One of the biggest and famous losses of US Military occurred in 1945. Five US Navy Avenger torpedo bombers flew from Fort Lauderdale, Florida for a sortie to the island of Bimini. The mission had 14 men. After about 90 minutes, the radio operators received a signal that the compass was not working. After that the communication was lost. The bombers were never found. The three planes that went for their rescue also disappeared.<br />#9- The first person to report about Bermuda Triangle was Christopher Columbus. He wrote in his journals that inside the triangle, the ship's compass stopped working and he also saw a fireball in the sky.<br />#10- Bermuda Triangle is one of the rare places on earth where the compass does not point towards Magnetic North. Instead of that, it point towards true north, which creates confusion and that's why so many ships and planes lost its course in the triangle.</div></div>Karthik Devahttps://plus.google.com/111117371591864172796noreply@blogger.com
